You can hardly call it a whole day's worth of work! About 25 people showed up at the City of Soldotna's Maintenance Building to help assemble and load boxes to get them ready for mailing on Wednesday. The whole process, which was expected to last 3 hours, took only just over one hour. The only person who probably worked on it all day long was Mayor Carey, who has put in countelss hours on this wonderful Red, White and Blue Program.
The Young Marines were there with their leader, Carol Laskey. There were some from the Peninsula's Yellow Ribbon Club, Mayor Carey was there and other families of service members.
Personally, I did not know where the building was and I gave myself a nice, self-guided tour of the north part of Soldotna Proper... When I arrived, the work was nearly all done. I was very disappointed that my uncanny skill of getting lost showed up on this very important day.
I was honored to meet Matthew and Zori Habermann for the first time. A very nice young couple. I will be keeping them in my prayers and look forward to getting to know Zori better as she will be attending our meetings.
Remember our next meeting will be at The Bear's Den at 7:00pm on Thursday, May 10th.
See you there!
